i like to think the fast decaying elements accidentally turn into another existing god (alpha radiation wise)
like, oganesson accidentally turning into livermorium (then flerovium and most likely keep going until a stable element is reached) and then the look the EXACT same with different voices.
of course he would change back probably almost immediately because yknow, 118 still needs a god.
(speaking of Livermorium, he has a design now which is cool)
The first of my many Starbound OCs that you all get to meet is... Oganesson! AKA: Neon's ship!
Oganesson (Og for short) is a S.A.I.L that became fully sentient and more or less went rouge. More details below. (Also includes some in-game screenshots of the ship bc I want u all to see it).
The ship itself was originally a gift to Noble from his parents, as a congrats for graduating from the Protectorate and moving on to join the Peacekeepers. They had no idea just how sentient the S.A.I.L was, but the insanely cheap price tag on the Sparrow Class starship should have tipped them off.
Noble and Og had a horrendous relationship at first, as Og refused to be treated as an object, and Noble had a hard time seeing them as a person. On top of that, spaceships were not Noble's area of expertise. He had no prior pilot training, and his knowledge on how starships worked and how to fix them was extremely limited. When out in space, he was completely reliant on Og, and incompetent people is one of Og's biggest pet peeves.
Out of frustration, Og would routinely do things like locking Noble out of the navigation console, choosing the worst spots for him to beam down to, purposefully taking longer routes to make him late, and sometimes just straight up refusing to go places.
Both Noble and his parents tried resetting Og to see if it would "fix the problem", but Og came back every time a little more bitter and pissed off. They even tried a total system reset and an install of a new S.A.I.L, but after it somehow still ended up with Og, Noble just gave up and left them at a spaceship hanger to focus on his Peacekeeper training.
After Noble completed his training, formed his group with the others, and they were chosen to go do off-earth missions, no one else in the 7-person group owned or had access to a spaceship... Except for Noble.
There was a lot of groveling, and Og eventually caved in and agreed to join the group and be their transportation. They agreed mostly because of how much they liked Neon, Helium, and Krypton, but watching Noble embarrass himself in front of the others was a plus.
(Oganesson, Sparrow Class and a "dedicated Peacekeeper ship")
Neon, being the group's chief engineer and pilot, was the first person Og met who genuinely showed them the respect they wanted from the very first "howdy". He also knew how ships worked! He knew the terms and parts! He could manually pilot a ship! He could fix issues with and without Og's help! He even had all the appropriate licenses!
The two became friends very quickly, and Og even linked themselves up to Neon, despite normal S.A.I.L programming dictating that they can only tether to the actual owner of the ship.
Fast forward to after the... accident... and the group fell apart, Og and Neon decided they were going to go their own way. Noble willingly signed the ship's deed over to Neon for the sake of avoiding legality issues, and within a week the two were off to explore the universe.
(Oganesson, Condor Class "Big Iron" ship. About 10 years after the group disbanded and they and Neon took to the stars to explore. Yes the gun works).
All upgrades and decorating past Sparrow Class was done by Neon and Og over the years. Og doesn't care much about what the decor is, so long as the crew's basic needs are met, and it doesn't remind them of the Peacekeeper days.
